Apple Maps erects gigantic digital wall to hide Tim Cook's house

Last time I mentioned this on Reddit it got hate, so I might pull it if it does again:

He's really not hard to find.

I used to see Tim Cook every morning while I was working on my laptop at a specific coffee shop. He came in, sat down, read news, and had his coffee. No one bothered him and It's not clear that most people knew who he was. He doesn't look exactly the same in person (much like many other people you see on TV or in pictures).

His house, mark zuckerbergs houses, most of us in Palo Alto know where they are. I'd never condone nor encourage a stalker, but my point is that this measure really just points out where they are more than keeping things low key and nondescript.

Cook coming and getting his coffee caused zero stir among people. I'd think that not blurring the house would be similarly as unobtrusive.
